Can fire survive -30 degrees Fahrenheit?
Fire is the rapid oxidation of a combustible material. There is no such thing as 'too cold' for fire.Fire only requires "food", heat, and oxygen. Negative 30 degrees Fahrenheit wouldn't actually BE -30 degrees for the fire, because the fire itself would heat up the surrounding area. If the fire ITSELF was -30F, then it would be instantly put out, because the combustion of the "food" would no longer be possible.

Would you use a carbon dioxide or powder fire extinguisher in an enclosed space?
Carbon Dioxide extinguishers displace the air from the immediate area, and so are not suitable for confined spaces (though they're safe in a normal-sized room). Dry powder is non-toxic, but is discharged as a cloud of irritating dust, which can cause vision problems in a confined space. Generally, I would use the nearest extinguisher suitable for the fire, and vacate the area immediately after discahrge to wait for the fire service to check the area.
